Bottle from Hayles Farm shop, Winchcombe, Gloucestershire Sunday 8th July 2012 Pours clear gold, no carbonation. This is quite Basque in style, quite citric, lemony and a little thin but ok. Lacks a real fullness of flavour and not the appley juiciness of others but despite the apparent criticism its fine. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov12 3.1

@GBBF2008. Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is bluecheese, bacon and egg. Flavour is quite much the same. Seems like this one was still germenting or something? Pretty much a decent "whatever you want in your breakfast - our cider has it".
